Now I dont think this is going to exactly happen but its a definite possibility, and would put an exclamation point on the end of the class.
So far the only ones who look like a reach was Wright(ehhh) and Harrison(failed triple package) All the other non-ranked guys were players offered early so the staff obviously felt comfortable with them, so as long as there are no more 2nd and 3rd options Ill consider this a very good class.

We were recruiting Cadogan at H-Back, so he was made expendable by the Garner commitment today. But Smith is still an option because he's a tight end.
What about the big uglies, Troy? I know they're not sexy and excitement inducing, but they are a necessity.
An extremely optimistic wish list for me of remaining commitments would be: TE Alex Smith, OT, Skyler Schofner, MLB Toloa'i Ho Ching, RB James McConico/Leighton Settle, CB Tony Grimes, CB/FS Peniel Jean, DT Beau Allen, DT Mike Hardy/Kyle Costigan, DE Clarence Murphy (DE isn't really a problem spot so I can deal w/ it if it means procuring Grimes)
With this being the final positional distribution:
QB: Joe Brennan
RB: James McConico/Leighton Settle
WR: Marquis Mason, Manessah Garner
TE: Alex Smith
OL: Skyler Schofner, Dallas Lewallen, Jake Irwin
FB: Cameron Ontko
DE: Warren Herring, Clarence Murphy
DT: Beau Allen, Bryce Gilbert, Mike Hardy/Kyle Costigan
LB: A'i Ho Ching, Konrad Zagzebski, Cody Byers, Josh Harrison
CB: Tony Grimes, Peniel Jean, Jameson Wright
S: Frank Tamakloe, Michael Trotter
ST/ATH: Jeff Lewis
This class needs a strong finish for it to make it palatable to me, because there have been too many scholarships frivolously distributed already, IMO. Ho Ching would be a luxury, but he's too good to pass up. Might be a moot point because he probably doesn't choose us anyways.
